Chapter 156: What are you looking for
? "Mentor, if you choose to speak, will you be contacted?"
"Any mentor is possible. The projects studied by Mentor Tali are all related to death to some extent." Mentor Kaz pointed out.
If it were before, Sol might not think too much.
But since he knew that the tower was about resurrecting Mrs. Youla, he immediately guessed whether these research projects were all related to resurrecting Mrs. Youla?
If this is really the case, then Lord Golza Tower is unexpectedly an infatuated person!
I always feel like it doesn't match his appearance and personality.
"Mentor, I want to choose a job in export." Sol didn't let Kaz wait too long and made his own choice.
"You are as bold as ever." A strange smile appeared on Kaz's gloomy expression, wondering if he was satisfied with Thor's choice.
He turned to face the corridor on the right and raised his voice, "Ku Jin!"
After waiting for about ten seconds, the door of the corridor on the right slowly opened and a tall man walked out.
He seemed to be nearly two meters tall, and Thor now looked like a tiny person in front of him. The name tag on his chest clearly stated that he was a third-level apprentice.
"When will I grow taller?" As Kujin approached, Thor's neck lifted up little by little until it reached a very awkward angle.
In front of Kaz, Kujin tried to calm himself down, but the sinking corners of his mouth still revealed his reluctance.
"Teacher Kaz."
"Get ready now to hand over the work with Thor." Kaz directly announced the final result without explaining, introducing, or giving Kujin a chance to fight for it.
Kujin looked at Thor and noticed the brand new name tag on his chest. His cheeks puffed up and then retracted, puffed up and retracted again.
He still couldn't hold it back, "Teacher Kaz, if you let such a newcomer take over the work, if you mess up..."
"That's his business." Kaz waved his hand, he was always very impatient in this regard.
No matter how much Ku Jin complained, he could only swallow it back.
If Ku Jin standing here was just a second-level apprentice, he would definitely not dare to say any nonsense.
"Yes." Kujin lowered his head and turned to Thor, "Come here."
Saul followed Kukin and took two steps, but found that Teacher Kaz did not follow.
He looked back at Instructor Kaz, only to find that the other person was looking at him with a complicated expression.
Seeing Sol turn around, the emotion on Kaz's face was hidden under the wrinkles, "Go ahead, why do you still want me to send you off?"
Sol stopped and bowed to Kaz, "Teacher, walk slowly."
Kaz said softly He snorted and left quickly with his hands behind his back.
When Thor turned around again, he saw that Ku Jin was already approaching the door, and he quickly ran two steps to follow.
"There are hundreds of kinds of materials here, but this one is the most common." Kujin said, pushing open the heavy door.
Behind the door is an extremely bright world.
There were so many candlesticks here that it was scary. When Thor looked over, his eyes were dazzled.
When he got used to the brightness inside, he saw... many people standing inside the door.
His heart skipped a beat, he immediately held his breath, followed Ku Jin, and walked in slowly.
Behind this third door, there were hundreds of people standing neatly.
People are lined up neatly, and everyone is one meter apart. Keep your legs together and let your hands hang naturally.
It's like standing in a military posture.
But all of them had their eyes closed, and the skin on their faces was as pale as paper.
Looking carefully, no one's chest was still heaving.
These are dead people!
"Are you scared?" Culkin stared closely at Thor's reaction, as if he wanted to see his joke.
But Sol didn't lose his composure except that his expression became more serious.
"Fortunately, I used to work in the morgue on the second floor, and I have seen a lot of strange corpses."
"Ha," Ku Jin raised the corner of his mouth disdainfully, "What you have seen can only be called corpses. . The people in front of you now were all at least second-level apprentices during their lifetimes."
"At least second-level apprentices?" Thor was a little surprised. "Are there many third-level apprentices here?" "
The most powerful ones here are formal wizards. ." After Kujin finished speaking, he enjoyed Thor's widened eyes and slightly open mouth.
But Thor quickly calmed down and asked immediately: "There must be many requirements and taboos for managing these corpses, right?" "There are only
two taboos here."
"One, keep at least 81 candlesticks lit in the room ."
"Two, the materials marked with serial numbers are not allowed to be touched or moved."
The fewer the taboos, the less likely they are to be violated.
"There are a lot of rules. They are all recorded in the manual over there. Just read them slowly in a while."
Thor kept the two taboos firmly in his heart, but still maintained a suspicion, "Senior Kujin, there are two taboos. Are the taboos also written in the book?"
"...Yes, on the first page. You don't have to worry that I will lie to you." Ku Jin stepped forward, "You are the only one who will die if you violate the taboos, but if it is during the handover, , I deliberately didn’t do my job, so I can’t run away.”
Ku Jin, who was tall, passed by a corpse, his arm brushed against it, tilting the corpse a little.
He immediately stopped and straightened the body.
Sol silently noted this down and thought about looking for this item in the manual later.
Passing through this group of dead people is the tall cabinet that is common in warehouses. There are many storage equipment displayed on the cabinet.
Bottles, cans, boxes and pockets, as well as metal stands, flowing soil, etc.
Sol followed Kujin and walked in through the passage in the middle of the cabinet.
There is a wide space at the end of the cabinet away from the wall, which should be Kujin's usual place of study and research.
Sol saw a five-meter-long table at a glance, as well as cabinets nailed to the wall and ground.
The long table is very clean and has been tidied deliberately at first glance. I don’t know if it’s due to Ku Jin’s character or if it was done temporarily.
If it's the latter, it means that Culkin already knew before Thor came that his job might be replaced by someone new.
Thor thought to himself: "Perhaps this job was actually arranged for me by the tower master?"
After all, Gorsa was the first person in the wizard tower to know that Thor had advanced and was about to return to the tower.
Moreover, Saul has been suspecting for the past two years that the opportunity for him to work in the morgue was due to the arrangements made by the tower owner behind the scenes.
I hope that the tower master really only cares about his soul talent.
Kujin took out the rule book and handed Thor three quills.
The quill was exaggeratedly large, and its overall length even exceeded Thor's arm.
"This is a communication pen. Once the instructor needs it, this pen will write the request on the paper. Although the instructor will issue the request after three o'clock in the afternoon most of the time, if you are in a hurry, it is possible for you to get up in the middle of the night to prepare things. Yes. You can keep one in the dormitory for backup, or you can choose to live here."
"Live here?" Saul was stunned. "Isn't it required to leave the East Tower before eight o'clock in the evening?"
Ku Jin put his things Moving to the trailer next to the table, "This is one of the most dangerous places in the East Tower, but it is also the safest place."
Because things had been packed neatly, Kujin finished moving all his things in a few moments.
He pushed the cart, looked at Sol sideways, and said condescendingly, "As long as you don't violate the taboo."
After that, he pushed the cart and left.
The hourglass clock was behind Thor. He looked back and realized that it was only around nine in the morning.
Thor picked up the manual and flipped through it twice, "Second warehouse rules?"
There are more than a dozen pages filled with words, but the next dozen pages are blank, as if they are waiting for someone to add new rules at any time.
The two taboos mentioned by Kukin are clearly written on the first page of the manual.
Apart from these two taboos, nothing else is recorded on the first page.
Thor read it from cover to cover and checked the entire book again. He found no omissions or modifications, and no magic fluctuations remained.
He then put the book back on the table.
"It's still a long time until three o'clock in the afternoon." Saul's skeletal fingers tapped back and forth on the table, making a crisp sound. "It's better to check the body and soul again and let more professional people find the black shadow. Hidden somewhere."
Although Byron and Nick checked, no other souls were found in Sol's body. But last night's experience made Sol sure that there was a ghost hiding next to him.
This time, he was going to find the apprentice physician in the wizard's tower who was responsible for checking the physical and mental health of the apprentices.
It just costs a lot of credits.
But spending credits is better than having an unknown spirit hiding around you all the time.
As soon as Sol took a step, he heard a voice beside him.
"What are you looking for? Me?"
A black figure suddenly appeared in front of Thor, blocking his way.
Thor looked up and met a pair of charming red eyes.
